Friday Link Up Party #40 and Les Preferes

Bonjour Friday!!Â And what a week it has been.Â Finishing up projects like mad, a very special treat today……I attended a day long workshop in the MAGNIFIQUE Sonoma Valley. Quite the day, can’t wait to tell you all about it……….next week.

I will tell you, it was a Cece Caldwell Paint workshop, and trust me when I say this, you want these paints!Â Read more about them HERE

And now…. Sur avec cela !

This week’s theme seems to be fun designs and completely out of the ordinary REDOUXS. Â

Thank you for all the lovely link ups, oh my, it was hard to choose, but here are my picks:Â This little number has been extremely popular this week, from Pink Postcard, can you believe this is her first upholstered project?Â It is gorgeous!

I love whimsical furniture, and this piece just made me smile, the detail is so much fun!Â From Hartwood Roses

I love old bathtubs, and I have even seen some fabulous ones painted, but this one steals the show from Kammy’s Korner

Can you guess what this adorable kid’s table is made from?Â Pallet Wood!Â This is one of the best uses of Pallet wood I have seen, this looks like it just stepped out of Pottery Barn for kids.Â From Shabby Love

I love a good bathroom makeover, and this one was so fun. Â Spruce Your Nest did a “Pinterest” inspired bathroom, you have to see the post to get the whole deal, but this little shot is just one of many treasures in this fun bathroom.

As I mentioned earlier, I was in Sonoma today, the class I took was at a gorgeous Antique store.Â They had bags, very similar to this one fromÂ Ugly Duckling TransformationsÂ

selling for almost $200!Â This clever girl gives the entire tutorial on how to achieve this look, and I like her’s better than the high ticket item!

Have you seen Chandelier Crystals painted or aged?Â Well, this amazing DIYer does both.Â Check out the post after you check out this picture from Freddy and Petunia.

……et en conclusion

I LOVE headboards made into benches.Â I love benches period.Â I don’t know why, I just think they are fabulous.Â This gorgeous DIY project from Slipcovered Grey is worth checking out.Â
